Not what happened here. This was a violent strong arm robbery. Doesn't matter what was stolen, it's how it was stolen.

Still doesnt justify being shot in the streets.

I was anything but an angel in my teen years, but I didn't steal from people and I didn't assault them either. I'm sorry, your bad behavior doesn't justify/excuse strong arm robbery.

Good for you.

Like the fact the officer had a legitimate cause to pull these two over and detain them that has nothing to do with race. Like the fact the accomplice tried to play witness and get ahead of events but had elements of his statement proven wrong. Like the fact that nothing in this event has **** all to do with race until the aftermath.

The officer didnt know about the robbery.

He saw two black people, turned them over. And shot one.

You so obviously don't have a clue what a redneck is, otherwise you'd know this was not a redneck town, at all.

I wasnt refering to the town as redneck, but to some members of this forum.

Try a search engine and educate yourself.

****ing hell. Is there some problem in comprehension here? I saked YOU, where I was making a godwin?

A bunch of right wing Southerners turn up, in the moment a black teen is shot by a white cop and emidiatly defend the cop no matter the circumstances.

Was there ver a point in your nations history in which things turned out another way?

Was there ever a case on this forum in which these people took the side of a middle class, every day black person?

And then the same people post stuff like "liberals are KKK members" "Germans are nazis" "Europeans are racist trash" "liberals hate white people".

No. You dont have the slightest bit moral authority to make a judgement over my reaction to this!

Since you're opining on what the Southerners are doing, what is your opinion on the people who are saying negative things about the cop (like he executed Brown, and he is a pig, etc.), no matter the circumstances?

You can listen to the narrative that was eventually what drove the mob mentality spreading in the bystanders at the scene of the shooting, but at about the 6:30 mark you here an actual witness in the background telling what he saw which actually corroborates the police narrative. The witness states that Brown ran from the police truck but then turned and went back at the officer who had his gun drawn. That was when the officer started shooting.

It's looking more and more like the narrative of the "witnesses" were people who overheard the crowd talking and decided to claim they saw what happened.

The reason I come to this conclusion is that it is highly unlikely that the witness in this video would by sheer chance tell the exact story the officer told since he never spoke to the officer.
